ENGINE COOLING SYSTEM
Check the coolant level in expan-
sion chamber 1 (Fig. 49) only in the
cold engine. The coolant level must
be between
MIN and MAX marks
applied on the housing of the expan-
sion chamber, which is made of
translucent material providing visual
control of the fluid level. While the
vehicle operation the coolant level in
the expansion chamber can be low-
ered. Top up the coolant (see
Appendix 1) through the hole closed
with plug 2. After topping up the fluid
the plug must be tightly turned up, as
the expansion chamber with the
engine running and warmed up is
under pressure.
Warning
To avoid burns, you should
open the plug of the expansion
chamber for topping up the
coolant only in the cold engine.
In cases when the coolant level is
constantly dropping and you often
have to refill the coolant, refer to any
certified SSNE.
BRAKE SYSTEM
The brake fluid level in reservoir 3
(Fig. 50), installed on the brake mas-
ter cylinder, visually check according
to the marks on the reservoir housing
made of translucent plastic. With
cover 2 and sensor 1 of the emer-
gency brake fluid level removed and
the new brake shoe linings, the brake
fluid level must be on the mark
MAX .
After installing cover 2 and sensor 1
the brake fluid level should be at the
lower edge of the reservoir filler.
If the hydraulic brake system is in
good condition, the fluid level lower-
ing in the reservoir may be due to
wear of brake shoe linings. The fluid
level lowering to MIN mark indirectly
indicates their extreme wear. In this
case it is necessary to check the
state of linings, and there is no
necessity to top up the brake fluid in
the reservoir, because during the
new pads installation the fluid level in
the reservoir will raise to normal.
«Brake failure» signal indicator
flashes, when the brake fluid level in
the reservoir lowers below
MIN
mark, that with partially worn or new
brake shoe linings indicates the loss
of system integrity and fluid leakage.
In this case top up fluid (see
Appendix 1) only after restoring the
system leak-tightness at any certi-
fied SSNE.
